Let S represent the amount of steel produced (in tons). Steel production is related to the amount of labor used (L) and the amount of capital used (C) by the following function: S=20L0.30C0.70. In this formula L represents the units of labor input and C the units of capital input. Each unit of labor costs 50, and each unit of capital costs 100. a. Formulate an optimization problem that will determine how much labor and capital are needed to produce 50,000 tons of steel at minimum cost. b. Solve the optimization problem you formulated in part (a). (Hint: When using Excel Solver, start with an initial L 0 and C 0.)
Upstate Mechanical, Inc., has been producing two bearings, components T79 and B81, for use in production. Data regarding these two components follow.

Upstate Mechanical's annual requirement for these components is 8,000 units of T79 and 11,000 units of B81. Recently, management decided to devote additional machine time to other product lines, leaving only 41,000 machine hours per year for producing the bearings. An outside company has offered to sell Upstate Mechanical its annual supply of bearings at prices of $11.25 for T79 and $13.50 for B81. Management wants to schedule the otherwise idle 41,000 machine hours to produce bearings so…
A cement grinding mill "X" with a capacity of 48.072 tons per hour utilizes forged steel grinding balls costing P12,474 per ton, which have a wear rate of 105 grams per ton cement milled. Another cement mill "Y" of the same capacity uses high chrome steel grinding balls costing P62,000 per ton with a wear rate of 30 grams per ton cement milled. Determine the more economical grinding mill, considering other factors to be the same. What is the total cost for grinding mill "X"? (amount in PhP/hr)
Suppose that Motorola uses the normal distribution to determine the probability of defects and the number of defects in a particular production process. Assume that the production process manufactures items with a mean weight of 10 ounces. Calculate the probability of a defect and the suspected number of defects for a 1,000-unit production run in the following situations. a. The process standard deviation is 0.15, and the process control is set at plus or minus one standard deviation. Units with weights less than 9.85 or greater than 10.15 ounces will be classified as defects. b. Through process design improvements, the process standard deviation can be reduced to 0.05. Assume that the process control remains the same, with weights less than 9.85 or greater than 10.15 ounces being classified as defects. c. What is the advantage of reducing process variation, thereby causing process control limits to be at a greater number of standard deviations from the mean?
1. A protein chromatography column that processes 15 kg of protein in 60 h, is cycled every 6 h, can be loaded with 10 grams of protein per liter of column volume, has a maximum flow rate of 50 liters/ min at a pressure of 4 bar, and is packed with an incompressible resin having a particle diameter of 90 μum and void fraction of 0.35. The viscosity can be assumed to be that of water. i. What are the dimensions required for the column? ii. If the flow rate is 1 column volume per minute and the pressure rating is still 4 bar, what column dimensions are required? Is the resolution equivalent to that for Part (i)? 111. If the pressure rating for the column were raised to 12 bar, should the column dimensions change? Is so, what should the dimensions be? Do they make sense? iv. What is the best way to increase the productivity of the column packing?
